nbc's tracie potts joins us now from capitol hill. good morning. >> good morn pentagon. it's going to be a big day, a big week and a big season headed into the elections as congress tries to figure out whether or not to extend these bush tax cuts that are expiring at the end of the year. now, coming out of the weekend republican leader john boehner who had been critical of the president's plan signaled that he might support it in order to get something done before these tax cuts expire. but all hopes of a compromise were dashed when his party came out very strongly yesterday and said that these tax cuts must be preserved for everyone, the poor, the middle class, and, yes, the wealthy. those who make over $250,000. his party is not the only group to support that. we now know of at least three democrats who say, look, this is the wrong time with our economy still not on good footing to raise taxes. we need to preserve these tax cuts for everyone. so it's a fight not only against republicans but against some members of the democratic party as well. lynn? >> thanks. >>> last

pete williams joins us now from washington. pete, if this problem exists and it's harder to find, why? what's going on here? why is it more difficult to find these people? >> that was the interesting thing about the hearing today, tamarin. what they say is that the terror groups are moving away from the big complex, long-term planning operations that resulted in 9/11 with a lot of people. they're moving to quicker operations that are less complicated, fewer people involved, a shorter planning period. and, therefore, there's a smaller window during which the u.s. has the ability to detect and disrupt them. here's the way secretary napolitano described the issue. >> homeland security, in fact, begins with home town security. so we're working with a variety of recommendations made by a working group of our homeland security advisory council to aid local law enforcement in this effort. >> and director muller, bob muller, the director of the fbi, said there is a bright spot here, that more islamic organizations in the u.s. are willi

can you sort this out for us? what's the problem? >> well, the queen has always had a bit of a reputation for being frugal, but in her defense, we are talking about really big utility bills. about $1.5 million a year. times are hard at the moment. we're fresh out of a recession and it seems even the queen is counting the royal pennies. according to documents unearthed by a british newspaper, someone at buckingham palace wrote to the government to ask for their share of a special fund which was really designed for people on no incomes. the money had been set aside to upgrade rickety old heating systems to make them more energy efficient. and no doubt buckingham palace and windy castle fit that bill. the trouble is the queen is generally considered to be way above the poverty line. a spokeswoman for buckingham palace has said that royal aides didn't know the money was earmarked for the poor when they wrote the letters and they were just trying to save the taxpayer money by improving energy efficiency. as you can imagine, this has got t

guys, thank you for joining us. doesn't the white house actually want the vote at the moment so they can tout it as a win going into midterms? >> i think they want this vote and there are members of the senate and house who wanted this vote. ultimately leadership decided it didn't make sense for them which is a shame because most americans can agree that at a time of incredible deficits now is not the time to be giving an additional tax break to the richest americans. so, while i don't think this was the most politically savvy move for democrats, i think this would have been a good thing for them going into midterms to force a vote on this. i do think there is a silver lining which is when we come back from midterms, i think you're more likely to get some republican support for this. >> john, who would stand to gain by delaying this, by putting this off? >> it's a very good question, richard. i think if you look at the democrats, you could charge them with legislative malpractice. they didn't do a budget at the begi
